Predicting Breathing Support Needs in Ventilated Newborns
This study looks at whether doctors can predict if a newborn will need help breathing again after the breathing tube is removed. It involves babies who have been on a ventilator for at least 48 hours.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby must have been on a breathing machine for at least 48 hours.
- The care team must be planning to remove the breathing tube soon.
- Your baby must be stable enough to be enrolled.
- Your baby must not have any major birth defects, muscle or nerve conditions, chest wall deformities, or metabolic disorders.
- The breathing tube removal must be planned, not an emergency.

This study looks at how doctors decide when to remove the breathing tube (extubation) from extremely preterm babies born before 28 weeks of pregnancy. It aims to understand what affects breathing outcomes and could help improve care for these tiny infants.
This study looks at the best time to remove a breathing tube from premature babies born before 32 weeks. It uses a special tube that measures how well the baby's diaphragm (the muscle that helps them breathe) is working.
This study tests three measurements taken before removing your breathing tube after surgery to predict whether your lungs are ready to work on their own. The goal is to help doctors safely decide when to extubate (remove the tube) in the operating room.
This study looks at why some children in the pediatric ICU have trouble coming off the breathing machine (ventilator). If your child is ready to try stopping the ventilator, this trial will help doctors understand what may make that transition safer.
This study watches patients after major surgery to see which factors may increase the chance of needing a breathing tube again. It helps doctors better predict and prevent breathing problems in the intensive care unit.
This study looks at patients who are ready to have their breathing tube removed and checks how to predict who might struggle after extubation. It’s observational, meaning your care won’t be changed—researchers are gathering information to improve future predictions.
